InsideThe18061318

After a gritty performance by the Red Bulls in Columbus, which saw them come away with a point, with a 1-1 draw, the team will now look to get three points, against a Sounders team that is 1-4-1 on the road this season. 


In pursuit of those three points, Head Coach Jesse Marsch will welcome back into the Starting XI Tyler Adams and Tim Parker, after the two completed their international duty with the U.S. Men's National Team.


Captain Luis Robles, who started in goal, against the Columbus Crew, after missing the last four matches with a knee injury, suffered no setbacks, and is back between the post for tonight's match. 


Alex Muyl, who scored the tying goal against Columbus, is back in the starting lineup, and will be alongside Florian Valot and Daniel Royer. 


Three players will be missing tonight's match on international duty. Kaku is with the Paraguayan National Team, while Fidel Escobar and Michael Amir Murillo are also away with Panama, ahead of the 2018 FIFA World Cup. 


Ethan Kutler will be making his first career league start, and will be with Parker, Kemar Lawrence and Aaron Long on the defense.


Sean Davis and Bradley Wright-Phillips will be on the pitch for the starting whistle, too.


Ryan Meara will serve as the backup goalkeeper, with Derrick Etienne, Jr., Connor Lade, Ben Mines, Hassan Ndam, Carlos Rivas and Marc Rzatkowski also available as subs.


The Red Bulls and Seattle Sounders kick off at 8 p.m. on MSG, as well as on New York Red Bulls Radio.
